I hope this hasn't been answered before but searching through these forums with the keyword "tether" and also searching google I have found no solutions
I am tethering my phone's data connection to my laptop, but every time I receive a phone call my connection gets interrupted. I am using my phone's data connection because the wifi here is garbage cause the family is constantly streaming videos.
So what I want is a way to stop receiving calls or even better is my data connection not to be interrupted while receiving calls. Either way is a solution for me.
As an avid gamer, even a few seconds of disconnect feels like a lifetime. Hope someone can help! :good:
Check your operator if it support VoLTE. If yes and your phone software was modified by operator than you just need to activate VoLTE in data settings and you will be able to transfer data during calls.

I'm sorry but what? Check my operator? I'm not quite sure what that means. I checked everywhere in settings and could not find something that resembled VoLTE. A more noob friendly walk through would help.
Edit: Looked around and found out that my phone doesn't have that option where some galaxy S8+ do have the option. How do I enable seeing it?

Still interrupts my connection, I still receive the call but it's just muted. If there was a way to forward all calls to voicemail maybe?
still having a really bad time over here guys help ?
ValueDD Did you enabled VoLte ? Without it data interruption during call is completely normal. If you are on 4G standard when incoming data call is detected then you phone need to switch to 2G to handle it and in this standard other data than vice call cannot be transmitted . Because of that couple years ago VoLte standard was developed which allows to handle calls in 4G technology. For VoLte working it need to be enabled on your phone which need to be supported by our carrier as a VoLte standard itself...If your phone is unsupported than you phone wouldn’t have voice over LTE switch present in the system.

Hello,
With my previous handset i use to get active data connection while on call, but with One Plus One its not available.
I am using the same SIM card, and i have read somewhere that this feature is by default provided the Network operators however the handset should be compatible.
Is there are way we can activate this?

This should be enabled by default. At least it was for me. You have to be on 3G or LTE, it does not work on EDGE.

No issues so far. I get LTE even when I am on a call.
I use Airtel 4G (Bangalore, India).
Here are the steps to activate Jio wifi calling on Asus 6Z. You need to enter code *#*#3642623344#*#* and this will activate special menu under Network settings. You need to deactivate Volte/Enhanced calling switch first then activate wifi calling and after getting wifi calling symbol again reactivate Volte switch. You need to repeat this after every restart of phone.

That's how these cheat code works. It does the job in background. After entering, it should just go back to dialer without having press to call button. Then, check in settings.
There is wifi call in the settings, but there is no icon in the status bar after I turn it on. I follow the video

Does your operator support wifi calling? In India this method works perfectly
There are Wifi calling functions in the settings, and the operations described in the videos and posts are also followed. There is no wifi call icon, and there is no attempt to call. Is it not supported in the Hong Kong version? Although this function is available, it is invalid.
Wifi calling already enabled on this Android Q, no need to d this..I am already using it
dial *#*#4636#*#* you will easily get WiFi enabled service
Does it really work though? After doing this, it refuses to make a call if you say wifi calling only which makes me think it still needs the mobile carrier to have a signal for calls.
Service is t-mobile fyi.
It is working flawlessly in India on Jio network. I have demonstrated in Video also

It only works in India (maybe some other places?). They don't seem to care about the US.
According to one of the mods on the Zenfone forum:
"When it comes to features like VoWiFi, VoLTE and so on. It's about testing, paying fees and signing contracts."
I don't think they care enough about the US (they don't really push the phone here) to pay the money. Don't hold your breath. Probably need to go custom ROM.
Custom ROMs didn't allow it to work on TMobile either. Glad some can actually use it though.
Volte doesn't work in the USA
Greetings everyone!
Just got my Pixel 6a, love it so far, but i have one problem: Wifi Call doesnt work.
Whenever i try do a wifi call, i just get the message "out of network call"
Im using a german sim card from o2 (telefonica) and the thing is: my prior phone
was a redmi note 10 5g and with this phone (same sim card) wifi calling just worked like a charm.
so my question is: is there any trick to make it work? any explanation why it doesnt work with the 6a?
its a real bummer to go from a cheap a... redmi where this function just works fine to a nice and not so cheap pixel
(love google phones by the way, its my 3rd one), just to realize that something doesnt work as excpected.
i also tried a different os (calyx os), still no wifi-call.
help?

I'm using the Pixel 6a in Germany with o2 too - I've no issues with VoWifi and VoLTE. Are you shure you've enabled WLAN call in the accordant settings?
I use Google Voice...there an easier way w/o picking up an additional phone #?
On AT&T in the US...which is prolly why...lol

i wrote that i used wifi calling with the redmi just fine, so i guess i know how to set it up, yes. so far i tried two o2 cards, no luck. question is, can you (you) really do phone calls by wifi or are you just using cellular without actually knowing. can you still do phone calls when airplane mode is on but wifi is enabled? do you see the wifi-icon onscreen (below number/name you're calling) when making a call?

Hi,
I'm having similar issues with my Pixel 6a, also in Germany. I use it with two SIM cards (o2/Telefonica physical SIM card and Vodafone eSIM). I have enabled Wifi Calling in the SIM card settings for both SIM Cards, but _most_ of the time, it doesn't work. The phone tries to use placing calls over cellular (my home office is in my basement, so cellular reception is pretty bad to non-existent, especially with Vodafone)
Most of the times, because sometimes it does work, then it shows up in the status bar and the wifi symbol is shown when placing a call. I couldn't yet figure out any correlation to when or why it works or doesn't, I have tried restarting the phone, putting it to airplane mode, deactivating and re-activating Wifi-calling - or just using one SIM card.
I'd say ~90% of the time it doesn't work.
btw I have used a Pixel 4a with the exact same setup / SIM cards before and didn't experience any issue whatsoever.
Do you have any workaround in the meantime?
Not sure if this helps any, but when entering *#*#4636#*#* on dialpad, going into 'Phone Information'
Is WIFI Calling Provisioned enabled like in my attachment?

Thanks for your answer. It is enabled for both sim cards indeed, though (WLAN-Anrufe eingerichtet is the option in German).

Very welcome.
I'm sorry, I wish I was able to help with this!
I have found the error - it's actually caused by Blokada. I'm not sure whether it's just after some update of Blokada (I have used Blokada v5 for quite some time and regularly update) or the combination of Pixel 6a with Blokada, though. But Wifi calling always does work, when I disable Blokada.
Than I found this thread and have subsequently added com.android.phone and com.android.providers.telephony as bypass nad it does seem to work until now. Somebody else suggested bypass of Carrier provisioning service, I haven't tested yet, since as said it does seem to work now.
Just wanted to share my findings, if somebody else stumbles upon this thread.
Has anyone else had a problem using the internet while on a phone call? I just switched from the s22 ultra which had no problem in this department.
Is there anyone else experiencing this problem Or is this normal for the pixel?
Do you try to active VoLTE ?
For that you need VoLTE activated. And it is not supported in every country. In order to enable it you need to root your device. I am still searching for fully tested and functional mod for P7P.
Pixel is weird compared to what I was used to from Oneplus. Having 2 Sims in where the physical Sim is for calls and Sms and the eSim for data. When on a call (on phys. Sim) I don't have a data connection on the eSim anymore. When I check "use data during calls" on the physical Sim, as soon as I'm in a call the data card changes from eSim to physical Sim and Internet is available. As soon as I hang up, data connection is transferred back to eSim.
Unfortunately the check box for " use data during calls" is not available for the eSim, also both are provisioned as VOLTE.... Never had such problem with OnePlus, there data stayed on 2nd Sim when I was on a call on first one....

It should still work with UMTS/HSPA if your network has this "3g" network type available, but relatively slow.
You need to upgrade from dial-up to talk on the phone and to have Internet access at the same time.
Big sarcasm here is anyone didn't notice, haha =)
In pixel 7 pro, Can we Switch mobile data automatically during call so that data is active during call.
This was available in oneplus
Hmm, I anyways lost connectivity with my OnePlus phones are well when in call...
What country are you in? Possibly carrier-related. With US Verizon this isn't an issue. When I was roaming in another country this issue popped up.
Interesting. I'm in Greece. There used to be a time that connection didn't go down but I never figured out the specifics of why.

Are you sure that you're not referring to VoLTE?
If 3G is shut off on your network and you don't have VoLTE then you call with 2G
2G doesn't permit data session with a call going on
Really not sure. All providers here support VoLTE but not sure how to check it. I think there used to be an OOS version that showed an indication for such calls but I then lost it.

All you need to do is to go to Network and Internet - SIMs - VoLTE (turn it on) & Preferred network type ( set it to LTE or 5G).
